Show Notes
Oxide and Friends: November 28th, 2022
Leaving Twitter with Tim Bray
We've been hosting a live show weekly on Mondays at 5p for about an hour, and recording them all; here is the recording from November 28th, 2022.
In addition to Bryan Cantrill and Adam Leventhal, our special guest was Tim Bray. Other speakers on November 28th included Adam Jacob, Toasterson, and raggi. (Did we miss your name and/or get it wrong? Drop a PR!)
Some of the topics we hit on, in the order that we hit them:
- Bye, Twitter by Tim Bray
- jwz: PSA: Do Not Use Services That Hate The Internet
- jwz: Mastodon stampede "Federation" now apparently means "DDoS yourself."
- Tim Bray On Algorithms
- On terrible Twitter ads: @intelnews: "Moore’s Law only stops when innovation stops.”
- PRs needed!
If we got something wrong or missed something, please file a PR! Our next show will likely be on Monday at 5p Pacific Time on our Discord server; stay tuned to our Mastodon feeds for details, or subscribe to this calendar. We'd love to have you join us, as we always love to hear from new speakers!
